DETROIT – Metro Detroit is home to a large Middle Eastern community, and throughout the region you can find pastry shops that cater to the growing population.
Over the decades many of the family owned baking businesses that were started by immigrants from the Arab world have earned a reputation for excellence in the mastery of Middle Eastern sweets.
Here is a look at some popular ones that carry everything from baklava, Kunafah, maamoul, awamat among more favorites.
Shatila Bakery is internationally known and attracts people from around Metro Detroit on a daily basis.
Its original location in Dearborn on Warren Avenue is often visited by tourists. Over the decades it has become internationally known with orders placed nationally and internationally.
It was founded by Lebanese American Riad Saad Shatila who passed away a few years ago and started the bakery in the early 1980s. Today his family owns and operates the business which now includes a second location in West Bloomfield.
It even has its own line of ice cream flavors are also very popular. Make sure you try the pistachio, mango and Kashta flavors!

3. Lebon Sweets
Outside of its delicious selection of baklava this business is actually popular for something very special it offers known as the “cheesedome” which is a piece of Kunafah inside of sesame bread.
